Pittsburgh Wedding Photographers at Green Gables in Jennerstown, Pa.

Goodness gracious, where to start? I have lots of photos in this post, so I’ll let them do the storytelling. It’s a pleasure working with brides and grooms on their happy day and I thoroughly enjoyed spending the day with Sara and Luke. There are so many pressures for a bride and groom on their wedding day and I know that setting aside time for photography is one of them. I’m biased as a wedding photographer, but I think that aside from the ceremony itself, allowing sufficient time for photography is a wise way to plan for your day. And I think Sara and Luke really got it, because while time was flying by that day, they didn’t mind taking extra time to allow for some creative portraits before being announced at their reception. When a wedding schedule begins running late, I’m sad to see brides and grooms rushed through their photos because of other scheduling constraints. Sara and Luke didn’t let that happen and for brides and grooms out there who are still making adjustments to the schedule for their day, I’m happy to work with you or your wedding planner to make sure there is adequate time for you to have some fun with your photography. Ok, back to Sara and Luke!

Green Gables was a lovely venue with lots of rustic charm. The grounds were impeccably landscaped, just look at the reflection of the daylillies in the window.

Sara’s Alfred Angelo dress was stunning.

Her orchid bouquet was the inspiration for her theme of lime and raspberry hues.

This portrait was taken in one of the dining rooms at Green Gables.

Here the handsome groom is taking in the first sight of his beautiful bride as her father escorts her down the aisle.

I like how Sara is looking into Luke’s eyes moments before she slips the ring onto his finger.

Their ceremony was held by a pond in the shade of a willow tree.

Their bridal party was a fun group.

I love to see the adoration this couple shared for one another.

So pretty and sweet!

Sara’s sister’s toast was heartwarming.

Luke’s best man made them a slideshow with photos from their engagement session and it was a hit among their guests.

This one makes me laugh. Actually their whole bouquet/garter toss was funny all around.

And lastly the bridal or money dance. It’s was by far, the craziest and funnest (ok, my grammatically correct friends – most fun) money dance I’ve ever experienced. Many blessings to you, Sara and Luke! Thanks for including me as a part of your day.
